Monumental sculpture

Monumental sculpture refers to large-scale, often outdoors, sculptural works created to commemorate, honor, or symbolize significant people, events, or ideas. These sculptures are designed to be impactful and visible from a distance, commonly found in public spaces like parks, plazas, and memorial sites. They serve as visual expressions of cultural identity, history, or collective memory, requiring substantial materials and craftsmanship due to their size. Examples include statues of historical figures, war memorials, or large abstract structures, aiming to inspire, educate, or evoke reflection in viewers.
